An untitled fifth Avatar film is a planned sequel to Avatar 4, and its aimed release date is 2023. James Cameron has already hinted that no sequel will actually have "Avatar" in the title, as Jake Sully is no longer an Avatar at the end of the first film. The film was unveiled on April 14th, 2016, along with a piece of artwork from the second film.[1] James Cameron confirmed in an interview with The Daily Beast on January 30th, 2017 that the script for Avatar 5 was finished.[2] Cameron has also stated that Avatar 5 will depend on how Avatar 2 and 3 fare financially.[3]

In September 2017, James Cameron stated that, as part of the back-to-back shooting of all four Avatar sequels, production on Avatar 4 and 5 would start after the release of Avatar 3. Both Avatar 4 and 5 are intended to be shot together and put through post-production sequentially, in a similar fashion to Avatar 2 and 3.[4]
